using GW 6 sp2.

a couple of our users have recieved e-mail messages where their name appears on the bc field even though the e-mail is not intended for them. header info does not show them as being bc'd. it only seems to happen with smtp messages that have been forwarded. has anybody else run into this issue?
 
If person A receives an email in which he/she is blind copied, and then forwards it to person B, person B's name will show up in the BC field instead of person A, even though Person A is the one who was originally BC'd.
 
This is working as it should.

We had the same issue here. The name appears in the Blind Copy field only when the e-mail has been forwarded to them.

According to Novell this is working as it should??

We did test this between 2 users and it does add the name, but we don't know why?

No much help I know.
